Biggest winners, losers from NFL's head coaching hires (LOSERS - Ben Johnson: He was the most sought-after candidate during the offseason, interviewing with six of the eight teams that had vacancies. He'll probably be a hot candidate again next offseason if the Lions offense that he directs is successful in 2024. But boy did his reputation take a hit around the league. There were reports that he was asking to become one of the highest-paid coaches in the NFL. A lot of people were shocked at how he turned the Commanders down — via text when they were already on their way to Detroit to do a second interview with him. Some teams will overlook that if his success continues, but for many others it will be hard to forget.):  https://www.foxsports.com/stories/nfl/biggest-winners-losers-from-nfls-head-coaching-hires

NFC cut candidates: Alvin Kamara, Aaron Jones among potential cap casualties of free agency frenzy (Tracy Walker - Detroit Lions · S.  The Lions are actually in great cap shape entering 2024 ($45 million in the green), but if there is a spot to save some additional dough, Walker might be it. He started just six games last year, despite playing in all 17, and allowed a 123.8 passer rating in primary coverage (per PFF). If designated as a post-June 1 cut, Walker would free up $8 million in cap space for a team on the very cusp of Super Bowl contention.):  https://www.nfl.com/news/nfc-cut-candidates-alvin-kamara-aaron-jones-among-potential-cap-casualties-of-free-agency-frenzy
